I have to believe there are much better ways to spend your money. I could be wrong, but it's saddening to see you all put so much effort into arguing against posts I never otherwise would have seen because those communities drive off people like me who care about the GOS project.
There will always be people or communities who don't have your best interest in mind, and you can't beat them until submission. I also can't help that there are people who have done serious damage to people involved in your org. It's terrible, a shame, and I would never wish that on anyone.
The recent posts on fedi about AI-use in GOS is a shows me that it's difficult for you to tell criticism from actual harm. I have read how many people either use or wanted to switch to GOS, but have problems with use of AI and how you handled the feedback. I believe it's disengenious to compare (in now deleted posts) fedi's critiques of your project with genuinely damaging action from Kiwifarms. Some of them were crass and in jest, but I never saw anyone who advocated for harm. Recommending an alternate OS doesn't consitite harm to me either.
This is all to say, I think you all should consider spending more time fostering the community that cares about your project rather than the smaller group of people who don't like you. You end up throwing more fuel on the fire with the latter. You have the right to defend yourself from harm, but I believe you are overreactive a lot of the time.
